zathurarc
=========
--------------------------
zathura configuration file
--------------------------
:Author: pwmt.org
:Date: VERSION
:Manual section: 5
SYNOPSIS
========
/etc/zathurarc, $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/zathura/zathurarc
DESCRIPTION
===========
The *zathurarc* file is a simple plain text file that can be populated with
various commands to change the behaviour and the look of zathura which we are
going to describe in the following subsections. Each line (besides empty lines
and comments (which start with a prepended #) is evaluated on its own, so it
is not possible to write multiple commands in one single line.
COMMANDS
========
set - Changing options
----------------------
In addition to the build-in ``:set`` command zathura offers more options to be
changed and makes those changes permanent. To overwrite an option you just have
to add a line structured like the following
::
set <option> <new value>
The ``option`` field has to be replaced with the name of the option that should be
changed and the ``new value`` field has to be replaced with the new value the
option should get. The type of the value can be one of the following:
* INT - An integer number
* FLOAT - A floating point number
* STRING - A character string
* BOOL - A boolean value ("true" for true, "false" for false)
In addition we advice you to check the options to get a more detailed view of
the options that can be changed and which values they should be set to.
The following example should give some deeper insight of how the ``set`` command
can be used
::
set option1 5
set option2 2.0
set option3 hello
set option4 hello\ world
set option5 "hello world"
If you want to use ``color codes`` for some options, make sure to quote them
accordingly or to escape the hash symbol.
::
set default-fg "#CCBBCC"
set default-fg \#CCBBCC
map - Mapping a shortcut
------------------------
It is possible to map or remap new key bindings to shortcut functions which
allows a high level of customization. The ``:map`` command can also be used in
the *zathurarc* file to make those changes permanent:
::
map [mode] <binding> <shortcut function> <argument>
Mode
^^^^
The ``map`` command expects several arguments where only the ``binding`` as well as
the ``shortcut-function`` argument is required. Since zathura uses several modes
it is possible to map bindings only for a specific mode by passing the ``mode``
argument which can take one of the following values:
* normal (default)
* fullscreen
* index
The brackets around the value are mandatory.
Single key binding
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The (possible) second argument defines the used key binding that should be
mapped to the shortcut function and is structured like the following. On the one
hand it is possible to just assign single letters, numbers or signs to it:
::
map a shortcut_function
map b shortcut_function
map c shortcut_function
map 1 shortcut_function
map 2 shortcut_function
map 3 shortcut_function
map ! shortcut_function
map ? shortcut_function
Using modifiers
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
It is also possible to use modifiers like the Control or Alt button on the
keyboard. It is possible to use the following modifiers:
* A - Alt
* C - Control
* S - Shift
Now it is required to define the ``binding`` with the following structure:
::
map <A-a> shortcut_function
map <C-a> shortcut_function
Special keys
^^^^^^^^^^^^
zathura allows it also to assign keys like the space bar or the tab button which
also have to be written in between angle brackets. The following special keys
are currently available:
::
Identifier Description
BackSpace Back space
CapsLock Caps lock
Esc Escape
Down Arrow down
Up Arrow up
Left Arrow left
Right Arrow right
F1 F1
F2 F2
F3 F3
F4 F4
F5 F5
F6 F6
F7 F7
F8 F8
F9 F9
F10 F10
F11 F11
F12 F12
PageDown Page Down
PageUp Page Up
Return Return
Space Space
Super Windows key
Tab Tab
Of course it is possible to combine those special keys with a modifier. The
usage of those keys should be explained by the following examples:
::
map <Space> shortcut_function
map <C-Space> shortcut_function
Mouse buttons
^^^^^^^^^^^^^
It is also possible to map mouse buttons to shortcuts by using the following
special keys:
::
Identifier Description
Button1 Mouse button 1
Button2 Mouse button 2
Button3 Mouse button 3
Button4 Mouse button 4
Button5 Mouse button 5
They can also be combined with modifiers:
::
map <Button1> shortcut_function
map <C-Button1> shortcut_function
Buffer commands
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
If a mapping does not match one of the previous definition but is still a valid
mapping it will be mapped as a buffer command:
::
map abc quit
map test quit
Shortcut functions
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The following shortcut functions can be mapped:
::
Function Description
abort Switch back to normal mode
adjust_window Adjust page width
change_mode Change current mode
display_link Display link target
focus_inputbar Focus inputbar
follow Follow a link
goto Go to a certain page
jumplist Move forwards/backwards in the jumplist
navigate Navigate to the next/previous page
navigate_index Navigate through the index
print Show the print dialog
quit Quit zathura
recolor Recolor the pages
reload Reload the document
rotate Rotate the page
scroll Scroll
search Search next/previous item
set Set an option
toggle_fullscreen Toggle fullscreen
toggle_index Show or hide index
toggle_inputbar Show or hide inputbar
toggle_page_mode Toggle between one and multiple pages per row
toggle_statusbar Show or hide statusbar
zoom Zoom in or out
Pass arguments
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Some shortcut function require or have optional arguments which influence the
behaviour of them. Those can be passed as the last argument:
map <C-i> zoom in
map <C-o> zoom out
Possible arguments are:
* best-fit
* bottom
* collapse
* collapse-all
* default
* down
* expand
* expand-all
* full-down
* full-up
* half-down
* half-up
* in
* left
* next
* out
* page-bottom
* page-top
* previous
* right
* rotate-ccw
* rotate-cw
* select
* specific
* toggle
* top
* up
* width
unmap - Removing a shortcut
---------------------------
In addition to mapping or remaping custom key bindings it is possible to remove
existing ones by using the ``:unmap`` command. The command is used in the
following way (the explanation of the parameters is described in the ``map``
section of this document
::
unmap [mode] <binding>
